Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
Any group
of people that assemble in one of the Houses of Allah to study the Qur'an, tranquillity will descend upon them,
mercy will engulf them, angels will surround them and Allah will make mention of them to those (the angels) in His
proximity.
''
[Muslim].
Commentary:
The meaning of the Hadith is that they teach one another by discussing the Quranic sciences, and
knowledge the Qur'an contains. This meaning is correct because both these acts are auspicious and are means of
gaining the Pleasure of Allah. This Hadith, however, does not tell us in any way that this group of people recite the
Qur'an all at once. This is Bid`ah for this was not the practice of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)
